I have had two separate incidents where the automatic braking system engaged causing vehicle to come to a complete stop almost causing me to get rear ended by another vehicle. The first time there was no sign of a vehicle in the front of me. It happened at about 55 miles an hour on the expressway. I took the vehicle back to the dealer and they claim they haven't had any issues so they download some new software and said that should take care of the problem. The second time happened today. I was entering a roundabout at 15 miles an hour (there was a vehicle about 15 feet ahead of me) my vehicle suddenly stopped (vehicle behind me hit their brakes almost hitting me). I emailed the dealer a video clip of the incident but have had no response at this point. I have lost confidence in the safety of the vehicle at this point. I have a dash cam video I can send if needed.
